The document provides information on continuing education requirements for counselors and therapists in various states, including the number of continuing education units (CEUs) required annually or biennially, and any limits on accepting online courses for credit. Requirements vary by state and license type, with the number of required CEUs ranging from 10 to 60 hours per period. Most states accept some online courses for credit but limit the number of hours that can be earned online, typically in the range of 10-20 hours.
